Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2007114698A2] Wind turbine with a rotor blade wherein said blade is relatively insensitive to turbulence because it is more slender than according to the prior art and is nevertheless able to generate sufficient lift by virtue of the fact that flow enhancing means such as vortex generators combat flow separation. The slenderness is defined by the chord numbers C and D of which C is defined as C = Nc <SUB>r</SUB>
